It’s been hard not to notice an increase in malicious edits and bot activity recently.

In particular repeated edits by the same people, which keep needing to be rolled back. Is there any steps that can be taken to prevent these people from contributing, such as IP blocks? JR Snow 08:16, 18 November 2021 (UTC)

Yes, measures such as blocking user accounts or IP addresses exist in this wiki, but only one of the administrators can do that. You can find the e-mail addresses of the administrators Morgan and Hyarion on their user pages in Tolkien Gateway. The following page contains a list of administrators and explains what administrators can do. I would be happy if you take care of contacting Morgan (who seems to be a fellow MERP fan). --Akhorahil 14:00, 18 November 2021 (UTC)
